Chapter 666: Can I talk to you alone?
"You should learn more from Fifth; even after having two daughters, he’s still better than you."Old Six sighed and said, "Mom, what can I do? Those women just can’t get pregnant. What can I do about it?"
Jiang Xin, carrying her bag, had a fierce look in her eyes.
She almost blurted out, "Maybe it’s you, son, who has the problem."
But considering Old Six’s pride, she didn’t say it out loud.
Jiang Xin had heard that Su Li came with Feng Huaijin, and her mood grew more agitated.
This Old Seven is really something, quietly having a son and now a woman to marry.
She used to think Feng Huaijin might have health issues, but now she wondered if she should worry about her son’s health issues instead.
"What’s Old Six up to?" A cheerful voice sprang up.
Both Feng the Sixth and Jiang Xin turned around to see Feng Ciye dressed in a formal white suit, looking at them.
Jiang Xin gave Feng Ciye a fierce glare; she found this Old Four annoying too!
Jiang Xin thought for a moment and suddenly covered her mouth with a light laugh, hinting, "Old Four, you need to put in more effort. The good marriage with the Ling Family’s eldest lady just slipped away. Look at Old Seven, not only does he have an illegitimate child, but today he also brought his fiancée home for New Year’s.
The mother and son mocked Feng Ciye, thinking he must be boiling with rage inside.
To bring up the good marriage with the Ling Family just to provoke him.
To make sure Feng Ciye feels uncomfortable at New Year’s Eve!
Sure enough, Feng Ciye’s expression slightly changed. He looked in the direction of Madam Feng’s courtyard with some surprise and said, "Old Seven brought... his fiancée?"
Feng Ciye’s lips curled into a smile. He no longer paid attention to the mother and son, walking away and disappearing from sight.
...
Su Li, anxiously following Feng Huaijin, walked into the small courtyard. As soon as they opened the door, the warm air greeting them relieved Su Li’s tightly furrowed brows.
On the genuine leather sofa in the room sat a gracious and noble middle-aged woman, wearing a jade-green cheongsam with a snow fox stole draped over her shoulders, revealing her fair and smooth ankles. A valuable jade-green bracelet adorned her wrist, adding to her elegant and noble demeanor.
Madam Feng noticed Su Li by Feng Huaijin’s side, a trace of surprise flickering in her dark eyes.
It was apparent she hadn’t expected Su Li to be there.
As Su Li felt uneasy, Madam Feng stood up with a smile and said, "I’ve always thought the Feng Family’s New Year’s Eve banquet was rather dull, but seeing you here today sparked my interest. Happy New Year’s Eve."
Under Madam Feng’s gentle voice, Su Li’s anxious heart instantly softened, and she proactively said, "Madam Feng, wishing you a Happy New Year’s Eve."
Madam Feng has always been a kind and gracious lady.
Looking at the gentle Madam Feng, words surged up in Su Li’s throat.
Uncle Mo Yu said all the tragedies of her biological mother were caused by her. What does that mean?
But today is New Year’s Eve, so she couldn’t ask.
Su Li took the initiative and said, "Madam Feng, I... I came to An City wanting to see you. Can I have a private conversation with you in a few days?"
Madam Feng’s eyes glittered lightly, her smile becoming even softer: "Sure."
Feng Huaijin glanced at the clock on the wall, pondered for a moment, and said, "The Feng Family’s New Year’s Eve banquet is in half an hour. Let’s get ready to head over."
After roughly getting herself ready, Su Li watched the night outside the window gradually darken, with snowflakes faintly drifting down.
"It’s starting. Let’s go," Feng Huaijin suddenly said.
Watching the people gradually heading toward the Feng Family’s dining hall, Su Li suddenly felt a bit uneasy.
Hope tonight’s New Year’s Eve banquet proceeds smoothly...
